Somewhere today ..... what did you and your child do today?
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
To make World Peace Day - September 21 easier to understand for our young ones and our future is to make it easy for them to understand what peace, friendship and kindness are and how they can do their part. Even one person can make a change by what they do. Can you be nice instead of fighting? Can you write a letter, help your sibling do something, plant a tree and recycle toys & clothes. When you learn about peaceful ways, how to be peaceful it helps and if we can raise the future to be more understanding and have compassion maybe they'll live in a Peaceful world..... we can only hope. I like the photos as well and I think this would be a good book to use in the classroom for World Peace Day and I think this would be good for younger children.

Makes the concept of nonviolence accessible to young kids.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This is an excellent and accessible book for young readers which makes the concept of nonviolence a personal thing. Given the recent frightening episodes of violence in our schools and communities, this book contains a valuable lesson for us all, and has a thought-provoking ending which gives the text a real immediacy. The photographs are beautifully done and fully complement and extend the text. What a good job the author and photographer have done in bringing us this gentle and useful book!
